    [​IMG] In final of chapter III, I deal with the very(?) powerfull Demi-lich. Kangaxx-lich was terminated by traps, and the demi-lich died after combination: ring of Ram/mace of disruption+2/Carsomyr. No casualities, no woundeds, and all fight last 10 sec. :D
    The problem is that I didn't get any experience. Why? What I did wrong? I kill him too fast?
    I reload and kill him again, but now be bite me: imprison Yoshi (no freedom spell - reload) etc. First time is only once :)
    P.S.: after so many advices in this forum about killing Kangaxx, it was a piece of cake. Thanks guys ...

    You could have killed him too fast.
    If you used traps maybe he died before he could turn into demi-lich hood.

    [​IMG] Nope, Kangaxx lich is never dying too fast. If he take a loot of damage (traps, spells, weapons), he always is "near death" and hecame Demi-lich. I killed him as demi-lich.

    Err, maybe I'm wrong here - but if you slayed him with one stroke using Mace of Disruption +2 - maybe then you don't get XP.

    If you kill Kangaxx you get 55000xp a ring that gives the wearer +2 ac +2 to all saves
    improved haste x times a day and improved invisibility x times a day

    There was a bug (patch is available on this site, I believe) where killing a monster via traps prevented you from getting the experience points. Install the patch and the trap-killed critters will get you experience points.

    [​IMG] I reload and kill Kangaxx a few times, only to try another strategies. Only the first time I killed him, I didn't receive exp. I used some traps for the lich form, and not for the Demi-lich.
    The quickest battle with the Demi-lich: Minsc, with Protection from Magic, Mace of Disruption +2 and Daystar, did 2 damage, no save -> Kangaxx history. This mace is AWESOME against undead, even the so powerfull Kangaxx.
